How can I enable Monitor mode within Win10 OS

Hello All,

I am using the wireshark with Npcap to capture the Air packet with radio-tag. With the same wireless device, I can capture the air packet within Win7 but not in Win10.

I try the following, 1. Make sure there is no older wpcap.dll and packet.all before installing the npacp and wireshark. 2. Using administrator privilege to install both application. 3. Using Wlanhelper.exe to setup the mode 4. check the upport raw 802.11 traffic (and monitor mode) for wireless adapters when installing the npcap

However, result in Win10 is always not satisfied. 5. From Wlanhelper, the wireless interface only support Managed mode in Win10.

Would it be possible to help how I can start for trouble shooting?

PS: here is the info I have.

Npcap: 0.996 Wireshark: 3.02

WNIC: DWA-192, HW:A1 Version, 1030 25 701 2017 Chip, Realtek RTL8814AU

Win10: 64bit
Ver 1709 build 16277.1087
Result Not support monitor mode

Win7: 32bit Ver 6.1 build 7601 Result: Support Monitor mode

Sincerely,
